They started by planning the website’s structure, selecting templates, and drafting a user story to guide development. With the Power Pages design studio’s flexible trial period, they experimented with various designs before settling on a vision for their site.

Once they established their template and content, Sarah led the development process. Using the Power Pages design studio, they created Home, About Us, and Contact Us pages, meticulously customizing each element to align with their branding.

This would lay the groundwork for the more intricate pages they had planned, as discussed in their navigation strategy.
